It is preferable to get your doctor to run the tests if you can. Out of caution, fear of malpractice or for other reasons, most docs will order the same test again, even if you bring a result from an outside lab (except another doc, clinic or hospital.) It can also save time, not waiting on the mail to send sample and get results before seeing the doc.

I didn't mean a home test. Of course it's preferable if her doctor orders these tests for her but if he won't, she can schedule and pay for them herself at her nearest Quest lab and go get it done. Easy, fast and reliable. No test kit through the mail.

Actually, they will usually take labs from lab corp or quest. And these are not home tests. You have to show up at the facility to give blood and/or urine samples. Results are quick, within 24-72 hours, usually.
